How are they "denying" responsibility when they haven't even spoken to their own driver yet? Sounds like they are still investigating at this point.

I wouldn't be surprised if the idiot other driver has some dumb story that it's not her fault. I've almost been hit several times by people like this. For whatever reason they just take off from a parked position and pull off into the lane of travel without looking. I'm 100% sure if they did hit me like that, their story would be "you came out of nowhere! WHERE DID YOU COME FROM! WHY DID YOU HIT ME!!"

Let's see how great a deal we struck on the buyout close after the governor mouthed off about Kelly's and then LSU tried to weasel out of its obligation. Surely we struck a harder bargain as a result:

quote:

---

In a news conference a few days after Kelly was fired, Gov. Jeff Landry criticized high-priced coaching contracts with large buyouts. He suggested more deals should be weighted with performance-based incentives that would reduce the guaranteed cost and lower the price to fire a coach. Landry called Kelly’s lofty buyout a “liability.”
LSU would owe Kiffin 80% of his remaining salary if it fires him without cause, which would be paid out in monthly installments through the remainder of the deal. It does not include any mitigation or offset clause should Kiffin then get another job.

Oh.

Those kids look sharp, good on them.
Good outfits.

Schexnayder said someone at his request notified someone from the state that he had the board as he was leaving office. He wouldn’t identify either person.

“I’m not going to go and start blurting out names,” Schexnayder said. “That’s not who I am.”

When I first saw this story I thought that it was dumb to indict him if all they could prove was the board turned up missing, but nobody could prove he took it. But then when you look at this quote from him, it's really odd isn't it. Makes me think he knows a lot more than he's let on.

“When I turned in the keys, that’s the last I seen it, that’s the last I know,” Schexnayder said Tuesday. “The last I know is the board was in the office when I left.”

Do they still have GED programs in prison? Maybe he can take this experience and make something of himself.

I never understood the weird criticism of The Eagles. It was one of those things that became cool to do but never made any sense. I’m not saying they’re my favorite band or anything.

You can't argue with success, millions of people love or like them. I'm chiming in to admit to being the oddball. I never liked them as a teenager or young adult, I found them way too slick and calculated. They were technically perfect but left me cold. Again, no judgment- it just wasn't my thing. When I first saw Big Lebowski and he was denouncing the Eagles, it resonated with me as hilarious- finally there were others like me! Another thing I found hilarious about that scene is the black cab driver loved the Eagles so much he kicked the dude out of his cab for disliking them. As far as I can tell the Eagles did not have a very large black following, so that was part of the humor of the scene.

That said I always recognized their talent. And I actually like a lot of their solo stuff, much better than the Eagles ('Boys of Summer' by Henley, and his End of the Innocence album is a pop masterpiece; Walsh was a lot of fun and had great songs; Frey's 'You Belong to the City' is a beautiful song).

Another thing about those guys is if I'm not mistaken they were all from somewhere other than LA and moved there to be studio musicians. They were all people at the very top of their craft, and it showed in the music production values, the perfect singing, the note-perfect playing they did. It's amazing. But songwriting ability and charisma are the real difference makers. As I said, even though the Eagles were not to my personal taste, they had these qualities in droves. Sometimes I do play a few Eagles songs, it's an enjoyable listen that doesn't demand much from you. And there's a stadium concert from the 70s you can see on YouTube that is excellent and sounds just like their records- going back to their fundamental love/hate quality, because that's either a good thing or a bad one.

Sure. You can get it on Amazon. I think I read a copy for free on Google Books. You can also see it on Internet Archive for free: LINK

I wonder if the veterans who had done the fighting were jerks to guys like your dad. "We did the fighting and now here you are"

Very informative segment.

To get started, it's always a good idea to have a planned workout before entering the facility. This can help avoid situations that could leave you wondering what to do when at the gym.

Yeah, that's a tough situation, when you walk in a gym and don't know what to do.

The Moreno sycophants are out saying it is not her fault.

The council reviews these numbers monthly.

They're all idiots.

I hate to say this but maybe the state needs to simply take over the city and run it, putting the mayor and city council on the sideline.

The people running it, including the mayor-elect, have refused to do their jobs for far too long.
